In a letter addressed to the legislator, Justice Byabakama confirmed that the Commission has taken up the matter and is currently verifying voter data and polling stations in the area.
“The Commission is conducting verification of the voter data and polling stations in the area of reference and will provide you with feedback as soon as possible,” reads part of the letter.
